Two KOTA Territory marines are dead following a single car crash in California.

A memorial marks the spot of the accident in Dana Point that killed 22– year old Corporal Jason Chleborad of Rapid City and 23 –year old Sergeant Jeremiah Callahan of Chadron.

Two other people were in the car. One was killed and the other hospitalized in critical condition.

Jim Amormino with the Orange County Sheriff's Department says the 2005 Dodge Stratus hit a palm tree. He says speed, alcohol and slick roads may have led to the crash.

Authorities have not said who was driving. All four of the men were stationed at Camp Pendleton.
